Gide Loyrette Nouel A.A.R.P.I.
Diversity
Gide is an international firm present in 10 countries, with lawyers of 35 different nationalities and languages spoken representing 41 of the world’s bars, with an average of 22% of non-locals on average in our offices.
Such a rich diversity of its members is a significant performance factor for Gide.
With this in mind, the firm combats all forms of discrimination and actively encourages diversity, in particular in the following fields:
- respecting equal opportunities when recruiting and promoting individuals: equal pay for equal work;
- providing specific coaching (mentoring & meetings) to women of high potential,
- respecting diversity of origins (regional, national, ethnic, cultural, etc.)
Our commitment to diversity is reflected in concrete actions:
- Signatory to the Diversity Charter since 2018
- A Diversity workgroup whose first act was to issue a questionnaire on the perception of diversity within Gide, and to establish an action plan to handle this matter
- Award-winning "Expect to be surprised" recruitment campaign and open positions sent to our Pro Bono partners to encourage diverse applications
- Gide Talents, an initiative designed by our Executive Committee to encourage applications from diverse backgrounds
